The 2025 FIBA AmeriCup qualifiers officially tip off today, and Team USA is set to make its mark with a roster full of NBA experience. Led by Frank Kaminsky and Robert Covington, the American squad is poised for success under the guidance of head coach Stephen Silas and assistant coach Patrick Ewing.
Kaminsky, a 2015 NCAA National Player of the Year and former NBA first-round pick, adds versatility and leadership to the team. Covington, an 11-year NBA veteran known for his defense and three-point shooting, brings a wealth of experience to the lineup. Joining them are other notable players like Dusty Hannahs, David Stockton, and Chasson Randle, all of whom have NBA or G League backgrounds.
Team USA will face Puerto Rico and the Bahamas in Washington, D.C., during this round of qualifiers. With this blend of NBA-caliber talent and coaching pedigree, the team aims to secure its place in the 2025 AmeriCup and maintain its dominance on the continental stage.
